The coastal village of Orašac is an idyllic Adriatic pearl surrounded by verdant countryside, ancient olive groves and endless views of the shimmering sea. Ideal for an authentic Croatian experience, the village is home to local restaurants serving traditional Dalmatian delicacies, a pretty church dating back to the thirteenth century and a charming harbour where you can hop on a summer boat trip to the nearby islands. Meanwhile, a pebble beach is perfect for enjoying a leisurely afternoon swim in the warm, crystal-clear waters of the ocean. Sun Gardens Dubrovnik is a five-star resort just five minutes from Villa Kindra by car, offering indulgent spa experiences and water sports facilities.
Only twenty minutes away from Orašac by car, the ancient, labyrinthine streets of Dubrovnik offer the perfect excuse to spend the day taking in the city's outstanding cultural landmarks. A UNESCO World Heritage site, Dubrovnik's medieval old town is home to a magnificent Baroque cathedral, enclosed within imposing fortress walls which offer sweeping views of the city. After enjoying the city's historic sites and bustling marketplaces, visit a local tavern to sample black squid ink risotto or pašticada, a slow-cooked beef and pasta dish.
After another exciting day exploring sun-soaked Dalmatia, make your way home to Villa Kindra in time for a sunset swim before a relaxing barbecue on the terrace as the stars begin to appear.
